Hard Off, Book Off… Recycle Off

Share the joy!

Many of you may already be familiar with this very eye-catching sign on the streets of Japan. Book-Off is for second hand books, Hard Off for second-hand hardware, B-Kids for second hand children’s clothes. Here is a more complete list of the shops, and what kinds of things you can find there.

The Hard Off Chain (Hard Off, Off House, Mode Off, Garage Off, Hobby Off and Book Off) have 636 shops in Aichi alone, so the odds are you already know where such a shop exists. Here are just some of the shops in Nagoya, with a telephone number for your navigation, or a clickable map.
